Wellwood trying out for Coyotes

The Phoenix Coyotes have invited free-agent center Kyle Wellwood to attend training camp on a tryout basis according to the team's website. Wellwood, 27, has played 338 NHL games (for Toronto and Vancouver) and has notched 63 goals and 97 assists.

"He's a clever, creative player who's a little bit intriguing," Coyotes General Manager Don Maloney said. "We were weak on the power play last year and he's a smart player who could help us there so we'll give him every opportunity to come in here and win a job."
